Performance: One flier was me, not the gun. Cartridge primers were all hit dead center. No feed or chambering/extraction issues. Action was smooth and positive. Sight picture was easy to acquire even with my aging bifocal eyeballs. Recoil was pleasant, and felt like I could shoot it all day long with no problem. Overall the rifle felt very good.

Next time out will be at 50yds, then 100. I won't be cleaning it until after that, and then back out for some serious practice before Bambi shows up.

Don't know about that, but Henry patented the first model in 1860, and it was in use by the Union in 1862 during the war between the States. That first model was a .44 rimfire. They produce a copy of it now, except in .44-40 center fire - about $2900. Interested in buying one?
